Project Goal
Create a dashboard platform that allows both ends of users complete tasks like upload products, organize inventory, view reports, and so on.
Role
UI/UX design | User Research | Information Architecture | Wireframing | Prototyping
User Research
First, I started with researching similar products, to get a better understanding on how the industry works. UI/UX lead suggested to start with learning the two similar platforms - Rapnet and WatchFact. I also found another website called PSA that has a very similar service - verifying the authenticity of jewelry.
User Experience Mapping
After understanding how the process works, I listed out all the user needs, content and functionalities, then began mapping the outline of scope.
Wireframing
Next, based on the above map, I created wireframes. This step helps working out the information architecture on each screen.
User Interface Design
After the wireframes got approved by UX lead, I started working on the UI design.
Testing and Revising
After UI design was presented to UI/UX lead and customer, customer wanted a more vibrant pop of color. UI/UX lead suggested to simplify the navigation menu bar. Based on the comments I created a revised UI design.
Prototyping
Sign In
Users can either create their own accounts or sign in with facebook or google account.
Once logged in, it will take the user to the home screen, showing the featured products and menu.
Navigation Menu Icons
Icons will be highlighted in pink color with darker border to indicate the users where they are.
Menu Items
Menu is divided in to six categories. Users can tab on the triangle expand button to see full list of items under each category, then hit the + button to add items into cart. Once an item is added into cart, users can choose to check out or add more items and check out later. Customizing items to users own liking is also available.
Customer Dashboard
Search
Users can search based on typing in keywords or by categories.
Profile
Under "me," users can edit profile, edit payment, view past orders, and change settings.
Call
Users can use "call" to contact the store directly if they have any questions, instead of looking up phone number of the store online.
